I think it’s about time for us normal, traditional Americans to start refusing to obey. A $13,000 fine? “No. I refuse to pay, and don’t acknowledge your authority to force me to do so.” If a large enough number of us start to do this (and to support each other in the action—that’s crucial), we will force the upcoming societal crisis to take place. If they really want a civil war, let’s make them start it. We just need to be ready to respond in kind.

If we could figure out a way to barter or use all cash. The goons that make arbitrary “laws” and fines couldn’t collect by means of garnishment. Seems like we could keep a lot of lawyers busy on the good side.
